Among The Farm-ere

(Continued from Page 6)

The second angle in the reduct- ion in purchasing power 0g mend farmers if prices are maintained oven at present levels. We estim- ate that Island farmers would ex- port approximately two million dozen eggs this year.

Even if there is not a surplus develops present indications are that farmers will have to accept an EJ797880 Of l0 cents per dozen less than last year when farm prices were still not on a pa: with returns in other industries.

This will mean a reduction of some two hundred thousand dol- lars on eggs alone. This could he greatly reduced by the develop- ment of even a 5 per cent surplus in Canada.

II We live up to an average pro- duction of 100.000 hogs per year and they average dressed weight 155 Pounds. we will be short an ad- ditional $775,000.00 based on the forcast five cents per pound aver- sge reduction in hog prices.

Therefore, on eggs and bacon alone the purchasing power of Is- land farmers alone will be reduced by almost one million dollars in 1950. This is not considering the lostsses on potatoes and other prod- uc .

It has been estimated by re- sponsible officials that if consum- ers in Canada would eat an aver- age of one egg per week more that our egg surplus would not be a problem. This could easily be done by a proper system of marketing. where-by egg prices would be held at a level that would maintain pro- duction and not discourage con- sumer buying.

Those figures are only given as an indication of what the actual losses are going to be to farmers and indirectly to Industry.

surely in an emergency some action will be taken to level out food prices until fanners can °Y8anize marketing systems. stor- age facilities and retail outlets under their own control.

the "Capitol Co-operative Cream- ery" of Fredericton will lead a dis- cussion at the Dalrymens‘ Associ- ation meeting on centralized packaging. storage and marketing oi’ dairy products and also review the development of the Co-o-perat- ive Feed Plant which is designed to serve all farmer (lo-operatives in the Maritimes.

There will not be a banquet or special speaker for the Federation meeting. It will be a business ses- sion only. The main discussion will ‘be on organization and the setting up of County Federations and appointing district represent- atives. It will take considerable time to review the new Constitut- ion and By-laws. The afternoon session will be spent entirely on marketing problems.

‘This will be the last open meet- ing for the Federation on the Is- land. Future Provincial Federation meetitgs will oonsist only of the fifteen directors from each County and two representatives from the

Provincial member organizations making a total of about 65 to 70 people.

The big free-for-ali will be the County annual meetings where resolutions will be passed by dele- gates representing each school district in the County.

Kings County Meetings

Farm Forums, Woanens‘ Instit- utes and all farmers and organ- izations in Kings County are ask- ed to make a. special effort to have a good representation at their County Federation meeting which will be held next Thursday morning.

As mentioned before we would like to have a good representat- ion of the ladies so that directors can be appointed and arrange- ments made for a follow-up pro- gram in each electoral district. We might suggest also that every- one wanting reservations in Char- lottetown for these meetings shoulchmake them in advance.

Short Courses

It has been announced today that a six weeks Agricultural short Course will open at the new Vocational School in Charlotte- town on January 17th. This will be a very practical course dealing with everyday farm problune from machinery repairs. to scientiﬁc Agriculture and Veterinary work. It is under the supervision of a special Agricultural committee on which the Federation is represent- ed. Details regarding board, in- structions and accouun-ioeiations will be advertised shortly. We urge every young farmer on the Island who can possibly get away. to take the full course or at least the pert of it in which you are most inter- ested.

We appreciate the action of the Department of Asrioulture 1n M- ilsting some o! our livestock farmers in taking the Graham's Course. This was a suggestion of the Federation Veterinary Com- mittee and we believe will event- ually be of great assistance to the communities represented-

There has been considerable planning done and arrangements are being worked out by the Board of Directors in Prince and Queens County for organizing their dlBl-YW’ set-up.

This will depend, o! course. on unveiling and weather condit- ions and the enthusiasm and co- operation of the people wniiwted in each district to tarke the lead in the organizing Work-

llrge New Financial Deal For Wesiern , Football Teams "

TORONTO. Jan. 3 — (CP) - A financial new deal for West- ern Canada football teams com- peting in the annual Grey Cup classic n.- called for by Canadian sports editors and writers. _W1ti1 few exceptions. they would like to see the western champions receive a better-than-even break when the gate melon is cut.

Results of the Canadian yPress year-end poll announced tonight showed that only three of the 40 who took part believe the present set-up is equitable. This gives 50 per cent of the net gate receipts to each finalist and pays the teams’ transportation for 24 persons with hotel expenses for two days.

Financial and other auange- ments are fixed by the Canadian Rugby Union, representative of all senior leagues in the east and west.

"The present split is fair," said Phil Seguln of Montreal La Pat- rie, one of the three dissidents. "Okay as is." said Dink Carroll. sports editor of the Montreal Gaz- ctte. but Gerald Renaud of Ottawa Le Droit was more outspoken:

"What eastern teams save in travelling expenses they pay ‘in salaries (to players). Western teams should be grateful for at- tracting a crowd of 20.000 at s single game." .

From there in. editors from New- foundland to Victoria. voting in the poll inaugurated l7 years ago. almost generally felt that western clubs should receive a "break" as they must travel 2.000 and more miles to Toronto each year for the late-November date with the east- ern winners. The Grey Clip final is the biggest even/t on Canada's sports calendar.

Kevin J. O'Neill. sports editor of the St. John's. Nfid.. Evening Telegram. figured a 60-40 split in favor of the west is a fair deal "in consideration of travelling ex- penses" and Pete Sallaway of the Victoria Times agreed that that percentage was "at least" fair.

west generally takes a beating. anyway."

Here's what Moore had to say about it: "Keep the split at 50. per cent of the net but include in expenses charged to the Grey Cup final, before the split is made, the actual travelling. train- ing and living expenses of each team, plus salaries to players, from date of the last game each plays before the final to date of arrival home from the final."

Others favoring a straight 60 per cent pot for the western teams included Frank O'Neill, Vancouver Province: Britt Jessup, North Bay Daily Nugget: Laurie Brain, Gait Evening Reporter: Art Cameron. Cornwall Standard-Freeholder, and Ace Foley. Halifax Mail-Star.

Stan Mohr-r, Edmonton Bulletin. Max Ray. Fort William Times- Journal, Dave McKay. Moncton. N. B. Transcript. Don Mackintosh. Sudbury Star, voted for s 50-50 split after expenses of both final- ists are paid.

Jim Vipond. Toronto Globe and Mail, also figured the 50-50 split was fair ‘but he thought "allow- ance should be made for extra western expenses."

"In other words," Vipond said, “travelling, conditioning and liv- ing expenses should be paid first.”
